Hi everyone,
I’m looking forward to hosting the 9th Traveling Craft Box! I have lots of supplies that are looking for a good home and I’ve always had fun swapping. I’m new to swapping here with the Farm Girls but I’ve swapped a lot on Two Peas (a great scrapbook board that’s no longer around).
We’ll limit this swap to 10 swappers and sign-ups will be open through March 29. Our first box will mail out April 3rd.
Here’s some information about our swap:
We’ll mail using a large flat rate box, so shipping ($18.85) will be the same for everyone. When you receive the box, please post here and let us know you have received it. Let’s shoot for a 5 day turn around; post when you have shipped it on to the next person on the list. Please include the tracking number as it will be fun to “watch” our box travel.
If you are interested, please post here. I've updated to include those listed in our earlier thread - I think I've included everyone:
1. darlenelovesart - Darlene - received and sent :) 2. churunga - Marie - received and sent :) 3. levisgrammy - Denise - received and sent :) 4. forgetmenot - Judith - received and sent :) 5. Audra Rose - Vanessa - received and sent :) 6. Beccalou - Rebecca - received and sent :) 7. Ginger Dawn - Ginger - received and sent :) 8. Ladybek9756 - Becky - received and sent :) 9. LauraBell - Laura - sent and received :)
We are going to close this at 9 so we can get started. I’ll include the mailing list in the box so when you get the box, please cross off your name and send it to the next Farm Girl on the list.
I've already picked up our box and can't wait to get started filling it up with fun supplies for you all!
Laura

Laura, Please include me on the list. However, I would like to be included towards the bottom of the list. I am having surgery and will be recovered by the time the box gets to me.
Thanks Becky

Happy Friday everyone!
Just one spot left - I think I am caught up on the emails I have received so far. I hope to get the box stuffed :) this weekend so it will be ready to go as soon as we are complete. If you haven't sent in your address, etc. please do.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend,
Laura |

Hi crafty swappers :)
I am just waiting on two more emails with contact info - if we don't fill the last spot we will just swap with 9. I've almost got the box stuffed full but I am leaving early tomorrow to go to the state science fair with my son. I will send out the box Monday morning :) just in case I don't get a chance to check in this weekend.

Good morning :)
Up early to wish my son luck at the Science Fair - his topic is on soil erosion. Looking forward to seeing him around the judging sessions and there might just be a trip to a quilt store in there too!
I have received all but one address (hoping Becky is doing well - sending positive thoughts your way). I do plan to mail out on Monday so I will let you all know the tracking number then :)
Hope you have a great weekend!

Congratulations, Laura, to your son for making it to state science fair! Good luck to him! (Yes! Perfect time to check out quilt shops)
Sometimes, we just don't fill all the slots for the traveling craft box...it just happens.
Just can't wait to see what is in that box! I sure hope I don't slow it down! It looks now, like we will be gone the the week after Easter and the first 3 weeks of May. If you think its best to remove me from this list I will understand.

Hi everyone!
Our ninth box is officially postal! Oh my - I stuffed it full and have been hoping we will have another traveling swap box in the future because I had to take stuff out to get it to close!
Here's the tracking number: 9505 5150 1616 7093 0598 89 so we can all watch its progress.
Happy crafting :)
Laura

Wow! You are quick! So glad the box arrived safely - and so impressed that you turned it around in the same day. I had such fun packing that box and I am thrilled that you found some crafty treasures inside.
Have fun crafting!
